Baldwin Hill is a shorter segment, but arguably not an easier one. Just long enough that ‘just go as hard as you can’ might not work. At least at the end you’ll be rewarded with some great views.
For our first away segment, we go to the back side of Griffith Park to a segment called TFC SMASH. Located on the north side of Griffith its close by but just outside of where most LaGrangers ride. This was was choosen because its a mostly downhill rollers that you can have a lot of fun hammering on.
